BOBIGNY: A waiter at restaurant near Paris was shot dead by a customer angry at having to wait for a sandwich, a source close to the case said Saturday. Colleagues of the victim called police after he was shot him with a hand gun at an eatery in the eastern Paris suburb of Noisy-le-Grand on Friday night, the source said. Attempts to revive the 28-year-old failed and he died at the scene. The gunman, who witnesses said lost his temper “as his sandwich wasn´t prepared quickly enough” for his liking, fled the scene. Police have opened a murder investigation.
